How cute it is that you think wanting sensible gun control measures put in place is so cut and dry, so Democrats vs. Republicans. It's not even about gun owners vs. non-gun owners. You also obviously don't understand how these kids used social media to organize and in no way needed or asked for help doing so by the teachers, unions or Bloomberg. They are a force to be behold and that scares the wits out of the NRA.
Some of you think the NRA is the only thing stopping you from banning guns. Most gun owners are not members of the NRA and when and if you ban their gun they will pay it back just like they did to Clinton in 92 by voting out democrats.
And lets get this straight, those of you eager to see these students vote hope to install democrats back in control, its not about caring about the kids.
The children act like leaders as the leaders act like children.
No they don't. Not if you have heard any of them. Most of them sound like idiots. They are clueless little lemmings. They don't understand why we have the Second Amendment. They think it is for hunting.
Times change. At one time the Constitution allowed slavery to exist and prevented women from voting. It is long past time for changes to be made to the 2nd Amendment to restrict access to guns. The Constitution is merely words on a page that can be changed anytime and that time is now.
good luck getting 38 states to sign off on your fantasy
People only use what they have access to. Its why mentally unstable people don't typically use flame throwers, hand grenades and RPG's in mass killings. Not because they don't want to, they don't have access to those weapons. Having strict requirements on who has access to Ar-15's, semi-auto rifles and handguns would logically have the same effect.
Well, there is always that other side of the coin.
Consider: A man is getting ready to throw a Molotov cocktail into your house (or school to keep it on topic). How do you stop him?
What I find most funny is there's a bunch of random people online who appear to think that they should have the right to dictate what these students do or don't do.
Seems like their mostly just stating their opinions.
No they don't. Not if you have heard any of them. Most of them sound like idiots. They are clueless little lemmings. They don't understand why we have the Second Amendment. They think it is for hunting.
I think you're wrong, also think it's beyond stupid to categorize an entire age group as "clueless little lemmings"
They are protesting for change. If that means overruling your precious 2nd Amendment, then so be it.
Not allowing dangerous weapons to easily and readily fall into the hands of mentally unstable people should be first thing we tackle. Hence comprehensive gun control. The other stuff needs to be dealt with, but gun control is logically the first thing we need to deal with.
You can't make kids be nicer to each other, but you can limit what kids have access to. We need to act on things we can actual have an effect on.
seeing as how social media and smart phones have a lot to do with allowing bullying, are you on board with restricting smartphone ownership to 18 and over?
Seeing as how street drag racing is done mostly by younger people are you on board with restricting certain cars and upping the driver license to 21 years old?
THAT would save a lot of kids lives but I bet those kids and many of you aren't on board with that.
